Furniture is a big investment for your home. While you can choose furniture that is constructed from high-quality products, such as solid wood, for strength, as well as performance fabrics for low maintenance, the fact remains: accidents happen!

Our furniture has a lot to stand up to. Young families know that toddlers and accidents go hand in hand. Older children and teens are often less than demure in their treatment of furniture. And pets? Enough said! Even single people or child and pet-less couples may decide they need some extra furniture protection, so they don’t have to worry about spilled food, beverages or other wear and tear.

If you are deciding on whether a furniture protection plan is worth the cost, there are many factors to consider. You should take into account the cost of the plan, the cost of repairing or replacing your furniture without the protection plan, as well as the details of the plan itself. Here are some frequently asked questions regarding furniture warranty and extended furniture warranty plans.

Is a furniture protection plan worth it?

You’ve spent time on selecting furniture that will fit your space and design style, and pieces that offer the functionality that your family needs. Once you’ve narrowed the selection down to a perfect sofa, chair, dining set, bedroom set or other piece for your home, it’s time to consider a furniture protection plan. While a furniture warranty will add to your initial cost, it can mean savings down the line. Warranties are designed to assure that you can prolong the life of your new upholstery for many years to come. If the new item you are purchasing is something that you’d like to use for numerous years, you may want to consider spending the additional money now to make sure you can enjoy the piece in the future—without the cost of repairs or replacements.

Where can I buy a furniture protection plan?

You can purchase a furniture protection plan directly through furniture stores, either in the showroom or along with your online purchase. There are often several options available, including warranties that protect different pieces and offer varied services. Look for a plan that will cover the item you purchased, from fabric to leather and more.

Does my mattress have a guarantee available?

A mattress is a major purchase that affects something very dear to you: your sleep! Comfort guarantees are designed to ensure that the mattress you purchased is a good fit for you—making sure that you’ll get the optimal support and rest that you deserve. Look for a comfort guarantee that gives you the time to determine whether your mattress is a good long term fit, such as a 120-night plan. With this plan, you have 120 nights to decide if the mattress you purchased is the correct comfort choice for you. If after a minimum of 30 nights, you are unable to comfortably adjust to the support of your new mattress, you have up to the 120th night from the original delivery date to take advantage of our Comfort Guarantee. Special restrictions may apply, like the purchase of a mattress protector.

The right furniture protection plan and mattress guarantee can help ensure that you enjoy your furniture purchase without the worry of keeping it pristine. You are purchasing the freedom to go about your daily life—your sometimes-messy daily life. Go ahead and let the kids play, let the dog have the run of the house, and pour your guests that glass of red wine. When accidents happen, you’ll be covered!
